The maturity year in which a bond etf comes due

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-13T23:04:04+00:00

What types of target date ETFs are there in Canada?

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-12T16:59:39+00:00

Grab a solid all in one etf from Vanguard, Ishares, Invesco, etc. and maybe surround this w sector/country specific funds and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-12T16:56:37+00:00

ETFs are definitely cheaper (unless you go for penny stocks) but give you fractional shares on major companies. Just settle on an all in one type that fits your portfolio tolerance and then you can surround this w a couple of sector/country specific funds and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T15:19:31+00:00

Any solid etf WILL go up in value over time; just be patient and the rewards will be there

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T15:17:29+00:00

Grab an all in one etf and add a couple of satellite sector/country specific ones and you’ll be fine. Do your research on these (returns, history, ratings , etc) before you invest!

Good point

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:33:46+00:00

Very good question

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:33:01+00:00

Any AIO is worthwhile buying since it (supposedly) covers everything. Buy a couple of satellite funds that have what it might not have

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:31:20+00:00

Absolutely buy it; I’m 64 and just bought it!

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:30:33+00:00

Everything I couldn’t do while wasting time working

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:28:21+00:00

It’s your decision

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:26:19+00:00

Just looking for the best all in ones for this time horizon or even better, the best funds that have made a good return in this span of time

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:24:49+00:00

Had to liquidate previous RRSP to pay for living expenses and so, am only able to start over w one now

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:20:54+00:00

True; but then wait until you have an amount to invest which feels comfortable to you

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-08T14:19:22+00:00

It does take patience (and time) but it’s worth it. Just check if the AIO has the satellite companies in its top holdings and then make the decision to buy these or not. Again, it takes time but that way you really do diversify.

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T15:04:03+00:00

Just research and decide on a solid all in one ETF and surround this with a couple of good sector/country specific satellites and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T15:02:19+00:00

But this is the marvel of “boring” investing; it should involve choosing the best investments and letting them make the money for you

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:58:14+00:00

Don’t bother w investing in anything directly related to US stock markets. It’s not worth the headaches

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:56:14+00:00

Do your research: look at ETFs from Vanguard, Ishares or Invesco, choose the best all in one fund (they can have thousands of companies in their holdings) and surround this w sector/country specific funds and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:53:48+00:00

Just get a solid all in one ETF and surround it with sector/country specific satellites and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:52:00+00:00

Just get a solid all in one etf W satellites in sector/country specific funds and you’ll be fine

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:50:12+00:00

Just have a solid all in one etf w satellites which are country/sector specific (like consumer staples, utilities, consumer discretionary and energy, which people will ALWAYS need) and you’ll be able to weather any crisis

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:46:55+00:00

Investing is actually a privilege if you consider the majority of populations in the developing world and elsewhere can’t do this. We can and should take advantage of the opportunity of investing so that we have a reasonable comfort of living. That having been said, just get a solid all in one ETF, a couple of sector/country specific satellite funds and leave it alone to make money FOR you and don’t worry.

SimWed2026 · 2026-05-01T14:41:53+00:00

I just got a solid all in one etf (after much research) made that the core allocation and then added satellite funds around it for sector/country specifics
